PART 14 ANTI-DOPING
(s. 53-54)
291. 1. If the Event is a stage race, an anti-doping violation committed in connection with any stage, entails Disqualification from the Event, except when (i) the anti-doping violation involves the presence, Use or Attempted Use of a Prohibited Substance or a Prohibited Method, (ii) the Rider establishes that he bears No Fault or Negligence and (iii) his results in no other stage were likely to have been influenced by the Rider’s anti-doping violation.
Comment: in the latter case the Rider shall be disqualified from the stage in relation with which the sample was taken only. This disqualification will entail that the Rider shall be removed from the final general ranking but any other result that is not incompatible with the Rider being disqualified in a single stage, shall not be disqualified.
2. If the anti-doping violation committed in a stage race involves the presence, Use or Attempted Use of a Specified Substance and only a reprimand is imposed in conformity with article 295, the Rider shall not be disqualified from the Event but 1% (one percent) of the time recorded by the Rider during the stage on which he tested positive shall be added to the final time on the individual classification. The number of points scored during that same stage shall be deducted from the final classification. Any prize won in connection with the stage in which the anti-doping violation occurred shall be forfeited.
